i've watched senator feinstein in intelligence, and senator levin and senator mccain. it can happen. we can make it happen. we have to make it happen. but i'll close with this: i served in the house for 10 years. i served with incredible members, and one of them was tip o'neill, and he was the speaker. and tip o'neill had a certain magic about him, but the magic was that he understood how to get things done because he didn't consider himself speaker of the democrats; he considered himself speaker of the house. and he knew the magic was 218. that was the number. he'd come over to me and every member when there was a tough vote and he'd say, well, barbara, can you be with me on this one? and i'd say, gee, mr. speaker, i don't think so. it's not good for my district. i really don't think i can. and he would say to me, well, you know what? if that's how you feel about it i understand. if i need you, i'll come back to you. and then he'd go do the same thing and pick up some republicans on the other side. and he'd get the magic of 1218 e magic of 218 and it would be done. ri

i'm supporting senator feinstein's assault weapons ban. we have one in california. but you could buy assault weapons in arizona and bring them here. you'll get arrested but they do that as well. we need to toughen our laws with our gun shows. 40% of all the guns that are purchased don't require a background check because they're purchased from private sellers. so there are a number of things we could do. this is just one of them. it's not the only thing. we've got to also address the culture of violence that we have in this country. too many people think it's just okay to walk around and shoot people in the way that you see too often in this country. for those of us who got to watch the nra commercial last week, the notion that more guns in the hands of good people will prevent gun crimes just isn't borne out by the facts. this is an opportunity for people to get rid of guns they just don't need. >> well, let me ask you this question. there is a newspaper in new york state that didded to publish the names of people who had gun permits so people in those neighborhood
